With the holiday season winding down, the City of Yakima does offer city residents an option for Christmas tree disposal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“If you would like our refuse drivers to pick your tree up from your home, please call the Refuse Division at 509-575-6005 to set an appointment,” said Solid Waste Manager Loretta Zammarchi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The cost is $10.00 for trees up to 5 feet and $15.00 for trees greater than 5 feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“These taller trees need to be cut in half before pick-up,” Zammarchi said. “If residents have more than one tree they need to call us to schedule a special haul.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She also suggested a recycling opportunity that benefits a local non-profit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Camp Prime Time is offering a Christmas tree recycling service to benefit its recreational facility for families who have a child with a serious or terminal illness or is developmentally disabled,” Zammarchi said. “They’ve been offering this for more than 30 years.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Christmas trees can be taken to Pape Machinery (formerly Washington Tractor), 3110 Fruitvale Boulevard, between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm through January 9th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
